Turn 20. Nov/Dec 1942. Axis #1. Germany. The Eastern Front. Ground Strikes.

Germany uses the four air missions of their land for two ground strikes, each with two air units, against Pskov and Odessa. Though it's snowing the Wehrmacht desperately wants to clear both these two cities this turn.

rkr1958 -> RE: Global War AAR in Pictures (5/7/2016 7:28:48 PM)

Turn 20. Nov/Dec 1942. Axis #1. Italy. Italian Coast.

The Italians also reinforce the Italian coast with both air and ships to not only keep supply flowing through this sea area but as defense against possible allied invasions from this sea area. For example, an attempted invasion against Sicily or mainland Italy itself.

Neither side attempted to initiate a naval combat.

Turn 20. Nov/Dec 1942. Axis #1. IJN. Bismarck Sea.

The IJN set out three carrier task force groups to confront the USN in three important sea areas (Bismarck Sea, Solomons, Marianas). In the Bismarck Sea elements of both sides in the area make contact with each other.

rkr1958 -> RE: Global War AAR in Pictures (5/7/2016 7:43:32 PM)

Turn 20. Nov/Dec 1942. Axis #1. IJN. Bismarck Sea. Naval Battle. Round 1.

Round 1 is bloodless with both sides failing to inflict any damage on the other.

Both sides stay. Of interest is the USN, which is heavily outnumbered in the air but stays in the hopes of avoiding further combat and to maintain supply to MacArthur's command on New Guinea.

The IJN loses contact with the USN so combat ends, just as the USA wanted.

rkr1958 -> RE: Global War AAR in Pictures (5/7/2016 7:45:37 PM)

Turn 20. Nov/Dec 1942. Axis #1. IJN. The Marianas.

In the Marianas the IJN moves in a strong carrier task force composed of two of their best aircraft carriers in the hopes of surprising and sinking the USN Hornet. Neither side, however, is able to spot the other so no naval combat takes place.

Turn 20. Nov/Dec 1942. Axis #1. Malay. South China Sea.

Mountbatten needs to get to saftey and quickly. This situation alone looks to force the CW to take a land.

rkr1958 -> RE: Global War AAR in Pictures (5/8/2016 5:23:04 AM)

Turn 20. Nov/Dec 1942. Allied #3. Malaya.

The sole reason that the CW took a land instead of a naval this impulse was to save Mountbatten who has pushed in by himself into Siam from Malaya. Mountbatten pulls back to the mountains of Malaya. An Indian MIL also pushes into the Malayan mountains east of Mountbatten to secure his right flank.

Southwest of all this, an Indian infantry division captures the undefended port of Padeng in the Dutch East Indies.

rkr1958 -> RE: Global War AAR in Pictures (5/8/2016 5:37:53 AM)

Turn 20. Nov/Dec 1942. Allied #3. USN. The Marianas.

The USN moves two other carrier task forces into the Marianas to reinforce the Hornet and two heavy cruisers left on patrol there in the 3 box from last turn. One of the two reinforcing task forces originated from Pearl, includes the aircraft carriers Lexington, Saratago and Yorktown and was positioned in the 4 box. The other task force originated from San Diego, included the newly commissioned and most modern aircraft carriers Bunker Hill, Lexington II and Intrepid. This force was able to make it only to the 1 box.

The USN initiates naval combat and successfully finds and surprises the Japanese fleet.

Turn 20. Nov/Dec 1942. Allied #3. USN. Bismarck Sea.

The USN attempts to repeat their victory of the Marianas Sea in the Bismarck Sea. The attempt fails as the Japanese are the ones who successfully find their enemy. The Japanese use their surprise points to avoid combat.
